### Question: What are the symptoms of Influenza?
### Response: The flu usually begins abruptly, with a fever between 102 and 106 °F. (An adult typically has a lower fever than a child.) The fever usually lasts for a day or two, but can last 5 days.
Other common symptoms include:
Chills Dizziness Flushed face Headache Nausea Vomiting Tiredness Runny nose Cough Muscle aches
Somewhere between day 2 and day 4 of the illness, the "whole body" symptoms begin to subside, and respiratory symptoms begin to increase.
The most prominent of the respiratory symptoms is usually a dry, hacking cough. Most people also develop a sore throat and headache. Runny nose (nasal discharge) and sneezing are common.
These symptoms (except the cough) usually disappear within 4 - 7 days. Sometimes, the fever returns. The cough and tiredness usually last for weeks after the rest of the illness is over.
Other symptoms may include:
Loss of appetite Muscle aches and stiffness Stuffy, congested nose Sweating Worsening of underlying illness, such as asthma or heart failure
